• Definition of an Adverb:

  • An adverb modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb, often answering questions like how, when, where, or to what extent.

• Analysis of the Sentence:

  • "Sumedha": This is a proper noun and cannot be an adverb.
  • "Never": This is an adverb because it modifies the verb "is" and answers the question "when" (indicating frequency).
  • "Late": This is an adjective describing Sumedha's punctuality, not an adverb.
  • "In the class": This is a prepositional phrase, not an adverb.
